Hi all.

Is there such apps out there for iPhone that act exactly like a firewall, in that everything is blocked, but you just selectivly enable per-application basis you wish to have internet access.?

Reason why, is im trying hunt down the cause for me getting charges on my mobile phne account, even though the phne is idle... No notifications are all off, no apps installed,..... No iMessage as i'm not logged in/never used it. A factory reset.

A work-around around was turning off "Cellular Data. Under Network, which fixed this. But snce i do have a few internet-enabled apps i'd like to use, using some type of firewall would be allot better, then 'selectivally' enable/disable Cellular Data, at will, evertime i need to use "said" application(s).

The charges are only . 01 to .08 cents but i go though about $4 a day, and since it all comes off my prepaid, i'd like to find the solution.

So, are there any firewall apps for IOS ?
